Is Romance Geographical
Is Romance Geographical When I think of romantic locations, I think of Paris, Venice, Hawaii, far-off dreamy destinations. So you can imagine my shock when my hometown of Knoxville, Tennessee, home to Dolly Parton and funnel cakes, was named the most romantic city in America for the 2nd year in a row. (You can see the whole article here). Knoxville was determined the most romantic city by Amazon.com, the online megastore, by compiling sales data. They studied the purchases of romance novels, rom-com DVDs, and music by artists like Luther Vandross and Barry White, etc. to decide the most romantic city. But to me, romance novels and Luther Vandross CDs are not romantic. Instead, they seem outdated and fit for someone wearing jorts and a bad perm (more fitting for Knoxville). So I ask you, what is romantic? Is it sexual wellness products as Amazon.com phrases it? Or is it coming home after work to someone who has already started dinner? Or is it a sweet email? Or is it holding hands? For me, its eating cereal. Nothing is more romantic to me than sitting on the couch with the guy I like, doing absolutely nothing, ignoring the world around us, and just eating cereal. Maybe some old TBS shows too? SO romantical. Obviously, these potential methods of romance cant be measured. Therefore I guess we will never know the REAL most romantic city (DARN!). But to get real sappy if you have romance in your life, than dont you think the most romantic city is the one you and your partner are in? So what do you think is romantic? Id love to hear your thoughts! Lets talk. Happy Thursday yall!

What Font Is Common in Resume Writing?
What Font Is Common in Resume Writing?What font is common in resume writing? That is a question many people have when they are writing their own resume. The answer to that question depends on what job you are applying for, or what type of resume you will be writing.The most common font used for a resume is Times New Roman. This is the font used by employers and the one that they see when they look at their candidates' resumes. So, if you are writing a resume for a sales job, you may want to use a different font for the cover page than what you use on the actual resumes that you are writing.Another common font used in resume writing is Arial. This font was originally designed for wedding invitations, but is becoming more popular now because it is a very elegant font. In this case, you would probably use it for the cover of your resume. Some examples of places that would use arial for the cover of a resume are online job listing sites and other jobs that require cover letters.Times New Roman is not a universal font. The idea of using this font on your resume is only as a standard; that is, you can use any of these fonts on your resume, but they cannot be in exactly the same place. Times New Roman is the standard by which all other fonts are measured. If you were to use anything else on your resume, it would look out of place and be inconsistent with the rest of the font.Another common font is Helvetica. This font is popular because it is computer readable. That means that anyone can read your resume regardless of your age, skin color, gender, or educational background.In addition to this, there is the advantage of the fact that this font is only one line high. It does not take up that much space. The disadvantage of using this font is that it does not have much character, so it can get a little confusing when you are trying to read it.Besides these fonts, a common font in resume writing is Arial. The advantage of using this font is that it is very readable and it has enough character to make it easy to read. It is also very legible in print and is also very readable when used on a computer screen.Of course, just because there is a common font in resume writing does not mean that it should be the only font used. You should be comfortable with the font that you choose. You want your resume to convey an accurate picture of you as a professional.

Know Your Target Company (Companies) - Hire Imaging
Know Your Target Company (Companies) - Hire Imaging For every interview, prepare with in-depth research. Arrive at the interview knowing the company inside and out. What should you learn? Their products, customers/market, parent company, subsidiaries, locations, rank in the market niche, etc. At this time, hopefully you have narrowed your job search to one industry. If not, you should still make sure you know the industry terms, the trends in the firmâs industry, the firmâs principal competitors (and their performance) and the direction which the industry leaders are headed. Dig deep into every resource you can. Heavily surf the internet. Read the industry/company literature, trade and business press. Try to speak to someone insideâ"or at a competing firm. Reach out to your network and mention firm names; ask for knowledge of contacts. The more time you invest, the better it will serve you. Even if you are struggling to carve out time, consider setting aside several hours for pro-interview research.

The ABCs of Self-Love N is for Natural
The ABCâs of Self-Love N is for Natural Be Yourself (Ralph Waldo Emerson) by Art by Erin Leigh The ABCs of Self-Love is a Blog Crawl hosted by Molly Mahar of Stratejoy. She believes in the transformational power of truly adoring ourselves and so do I. Find out more about The ABCâs of Self Love Blog Crawl + Treasure Hunt here (you can win a free spot in the Fierce Love course!) A few weeks ago, I breathed deep, freaked out, made my husband and great friend read and re-read what I spent hours writing, breathed again, and hit the button to schedule Yup. 3 Sign-Ups. (aka How I Screwed Up Majorly, and What Im Doing To Fix It). While I felt it was important to do, and I hoped it would start a much-needed discussion on how everyone doesnt make a million dollars when they launch a product/service (as well as revealing The (Wo)Man Behind The Curtain as opposed to The Great Oz herself ), I was scared to death of outing myself and my failed launch. I heard my Dad in the back of my head, who chastised me as a very very early blog writer for writing how many clients I was working with, as it disclosed how much money I was making. I heard my Vampire (thats what I call the voices in our heads that suck the good stuff outta us) saying that it would make lots of people run away from my Clubhouse, never allowing it to grow and not allowing that community to blossom. But th e more I heard those voices and the more I wrote and re-wrote that post (it literally took hours), the more I felt excited and scared. Excited and Scared is what I live for. When my clients describe feeling it in almost-equal doses, I start doing the happy dance. It always means that youre on the right track, which is not synonomous for Things Working Out or Being Wildly Successful. But it does mean that you care about whatever it is thats giving you that feeling, and thats somethings at stake. More excited than scared probably means youre about to have fun, and thats great but theres nothing to care about there. More scared than exciting is what I call The Uh-Oh Feeling, and you should probably get outta that situation and how. But equally scared and excited? It means youre guaranteed to learn, to grow, to take away and that is always The Right Track. If you go back to my veeeeeeeery first post (all the back in May 2008!) and follow the arrows to the next post and the next and the next, you might recognize my voice but not my vulnerability, not my honesty, not my uniquity. Thats cause when I first started blogging, I wore The Mask of a life coach. I cant tell people I have a corporate job and Im not coaching full-time! I cant tell people that I dont have things all figured out and that my life is less than perfect! I cant tell people that I dont have all the answers! Yup. I thought all those things and then some, and set about writing my early posts to Showcase My Expertise and Perfect Life.until I realized that my blog was so boring that I wouldnt even read it. I took off The Mask then, fell back on everything I learned as a struggling actor, and decided to no longer keep things to myself unless they were deeply personal or involved others whose feelings would be compromised by sharing whatever I wanted to say. It led me to, almost 3 years later, share my boob cancer with you guys, even. I mean, once thats on the table, you can talk about pretty much anything. And what have I gotten in return? Thank Yous. Virtual hugs. Lots of new friends. Appreciation. More Clubhouse members (were at 34 now!). Joy. A fulfilling, passionate business that has a strong foundation and the most amazeballs clients a lil ole creative career coach could ask for. A whole network of people who understand me, who support me, who cheer me on. The feeling that Im doing The Right Thing, that anything less would be cheating myself and everyone whos now come to know me, to read what I have to write, to buy what Im selling or work with me as a client. So, N is for Natural. For being Vulnerable. For Sharing. For being Unique. For Owning Your Story. For Trust. For Connection. For Showing and Telling. For Excitement and Fear In Equal Measure. For Removing The Mask. Really, my ABCs of Self-Love are more like NVSUOYSTCSATEAFIEMRTM, but well just call it Natural for short. -

Writing Resume For the Majority of Applicants
Writing Resume For the Majority of ApplicantsWriting a resume is no simple matter. The English language isn't the easiest thing to master. Those who don't know the lingo or simply don't have time to devote to learning it may be a little intimidated. There are many other things that need to be taken into consideration when writing resumes, including the educational background of the applicant.There are many professionals who understand English and can write resumes. The Internet has created opportunities for them to do this. They can send resumes to job-hunting firms in order to get interviews with companies. On the Internet, an English-speaking individual doesn't even have to use words in their resume to be able to communicate properly.One could assume that putting your resume online would create an incredible demand for resumes. However, this isn't the case. First of all, a company might not consider that they need a resume, they might simply want to know if you have a college degre e. What they are looking for is more so a person who has knowledge of the English language, which they are more likely to find in someone who writes resumes.An individual who has done research on the English language will most likely come across more than one website that lists the advantages of writing resumes. These websites typically specialize in helping those who are new to writing resumes. They have an army of former students and applicants to help, including specialized resume writers, who help with the finer points of writing a resume.A person should have an education in English, which is important when dealing with the English language. That is the same thing as having the proper mindset to appreciate the proper use of English. As a student, when you learn the language it can be difficult to remember the exact pronunciation of words and phrases and the English language can be complex.It's important that an individual who writes resumes does so in a way that is consistent wi th what the English language is like. Using unusual words, which are found rarely in dictionaries, creates a challenge for those who are trying to learn the language. In the language of resume writing, there is a big difference between the written English used by one to express themselves and the written English that you will use to write a resume. Many people who are trying to learn the language will be hesitant to change the vocabulary and grammar used in their resumes. This doesn't mean that the English language doesn't have any rules and that an individual can't get it wrong, but it does mean that they must be consistent in their writing style and basic communication skills.In order to excel at writing resumes, an individual needs to have a firm grasp of how to write English. English is not easy to learn. It takes months, even years, to master it, which is why it is very important that they should be very cautious about using words in resumes that they wouldn't use in normal con versation. If an individual has this kind of understanding, they can increase their chances of getting a good job.
